Staffing News

As is normally the case in a large school such as Trinity College, we will see a number of staff changes at the end of this year. We take this opportunity to recognise those members of staff who are either departing the College or commencing periods of leave. I would like to formally acknowledge each of the following people, some of whom have been very long standing staff members, and thank them for their many and generous contributions during their time at Trinity College.

 

We begin by acknowledging the work of several staff members who will be retiring at the end of this year. They have provided wonderful and generous service to our College and to Catholic Education generally.  We wish them every blessing as they look to enjoy the next stage of their journey:

  • Ross Beatson – Manager of Services, Buildings and Grounds 
  • Gordon Dean - Religious Education Teacher
  • Margaret Denniston – Music Secretary
  • John Lamborn – Junior School/Arts Teacher
  • Rod Rainer – Health and Physical Education HOLA

There are several staff members who will be leaving our College at the end of the year.  We wish them every success and happiness as they pursue different paths:

  • Joel Bass – Music Teacher
  • Alexandra Benson – Religious Education Teacher
  • Tessa Black - Humanities Teacher
  • Reuben Brennan – Junior School Teacher
  • Melani Byrne – JS Psychologist
  • Sean Carroll – Sports Administrator
  • Bobby Emmanuel – Science Teacher
  • Adam Gage - Information Technology HOLA
  • Maddison Gorman - Junior School Teacher
  • Russell Hinks - Career and Transition Coordinator
  • Josh Kirkaldy – PE Assistant
  • Sarah Pontre – Mathematics Teacher
  • Sara Pounder – Education Assistant
  • Matthew Riley - Health and Physical Education Teacher
  • Elena Santalucia - Junior School Teacher
  • Evelyn Temmen – Assistant Head of Junior School 
  • Natasha Trandos - Humanities Teacher
  • Bree Villella - Religious Education Teacher
  • Claire Wilson - Mathematics Teacher
  • Jarrad Wood – PE Assistant

We also have a number of College staff who will be enjoying some extended leave commencing at the start of next year. We wish them a wonderful, relaxing and peaceful break: 

  • Alanna Brennan – Junior School Teacher
  • Alastair Hay – Science Teacher
  • Ray Kosovich – Religious Education Teacher

The College is currently finalising staffing to fill the vacancies that have arisen from these changes. I will advise of new staff appointments in the first College Newsletter of next year.

 

I want to take this opportunity to give particular thanks to Evelyn Temmen who has fulfilled the role of Acting Head of Junior School from the start of Term 2 this year. Evelyn has been generous in her service and humble in her manner in leading the Junior school this year. We wish her the very best as she explores new ventures next year. We also look forward to welcoming Jasmin Kenworthy as the Head of Junior School, and Holly Allen as the Assistant Head of Junior School as we commence 2023.

 

Live Jesus in our hearts
